Mobile Notary in Sapulpa, OK – Reliable and Professional Notary Public Services

At Notary in Tulsa, we strive to make the notarization process straightforward, secure, and compliant with Oklahoma state laws. Whether you need real estate transactions notarized, wills and trusts authenticated, or affidavits certified, our goal is to ensure a seamless and professional experience from start to finish.

Here’s a step-by-step overview of what you can expect during your notary appointment:

1. Identity Verification – Protecting Document Integrity

To verify your identity and prevent fraud, you must present a valid, government-issued ID at the time of your appointment. This ensures the authenticity of the signer and protects all parties involved.

Accepted IDs include:

• Driver’s License (from any U.S. state)

• U.S. Passport or Foreign Passport

• Military Identification Card

• State-Issued ID Card

• Permanent Resident Card (Green Card)

If you do not have one of these IDs, alternative verification methods such as credible witnesses may be accepted. Please call in advance to discuss your options.

2. Document Review and Signing – Ensuring Accuracy

The notary will carefully review your documents to ensure that all necessary fields are completed and that no alterations are made post-signing. You should wait to sign the document until the notary is present.

• If the document requires multiple signers, all individuals must be present and bring their valid identification.
• The notary will witness your signature and confirm that you are signing willingly and with full understanding of the document’s contents.

3. Notarial Journal Entry – Creating a Legal Record

Every notarization is recorded in a notarial journal as required by Oklahoma law. This journal acts as an official record of the transaction and provides a trail of accountability.

During this process, the notary will log:

• The date and time of the notarization
• The type of document being notarized
• Identification details (ID number and expiration date)
• Your signature in the notary’s journal
• A thumbprint (for real estate documents or other sensitive agreements)

4. Application of Seal and Stamp – Certifying the Document

Once the document is reviewed and signed, the notary will apply an official seal and stamp to certify the transaction. This finalizes the process and ensures the document holds legal standing.

For multi-page documents, a notarial certificate may be attached, clearly indicating which document was notarized. This prevents tampering and ensures that the entire document set is valid.
